Yes, as noted I sent in for another round nearer to the deadline (maybe 2 weeks prior?), and so that seems to be the scenario... People who were late getting orders in are getting cards to notify they'll get their figures after the estimated ship dates.

Since I've staggered my orders out, I've gotten to experience both post cards and getting Eopies (today) while still getting a card about some outstanding ones and things... Good thing I've kept track of the ones I've sent out for.

I'm still waiting on the Eopies I got the post card for. I also sent off for another one or two just days before the final deadline. I'm expecting a post card about them. I think I saw that a check had cleared on my account but without double checking the number, that could have been for one of the Vebb figures I sent for.

I'm not quite sure what I'm doing... But a beast and a good figure for $7 is a pretty great deal so I figured if I'm going to, I may as well go big.

I want to maybe make some pack-animal customs with the Eopies, and have extras around for stuff. I've got more than I figured I should have, but hey, it's a deal. THe line hasn't had a mail-away this nice in eons, if ever.

I'm confused as to why the ones I sent away for between Thanksgiving and Xmas aren't being fulfilled with the batch being shipped in May. Maybe they have bunched all of my remaining ones together for a bulk shipment like they did with my Crystal Skeletons.

Oh well...

I'm pretty pissed, because I sent off my form a week before the deadline - March, I think?

Got a postcard saying that it'll be delayed and shipped starting July 15th. WHOAH! Ok, whatever.

Reports come in that more postcards are coming informing people that they WON'T be receiving their set, because supplies are exhausted.

JTA informs readers that if you call the customer service number, they'll tell you whether your order has been secured or not. So I call, and a surprisingly nice woman answers and tells me my order will come with the replenished sets and shipped in July.

July 15th comes around. Still no Qui-Gon and Eopie. I mailed for this in March. Part of me is wishing that I didn't order in the first place.

As mad as I am, I know I can't really blame Hasbro, because they were nice enough to put in another order for a fresh batch of Qui-Gon/Eopie sets.

Oh yeah - I totally I forgotten about these - I wonder if I'm getting the ones they said were shipping on July 15th or not...

I got screwed on one of my Vebbs - I had an old money order lying around for $6.99 and I sent it in hoping that it would still be cashed, but apparently, USPS money orders expire, which is ridiculous if you ask me, but you learn something new every day I suppose.

Yeah - I'm not overly concerned - I already have five of them so I think I only have three more coming.

I was planning on cannibalizing my son's Anakin pod racer to recreate the Eopie's bringing the engines to the Boonta's Eve Pod Race.... so if I never get them, it's not the end of the world. They did cash my money orders so I would try to get them to transfer those requests over to the Bric w/Game Mat mailaway if they're not gonna send me Eopies....
